NGD: ‘05 20th Ann Custom 22

[Gtrbldr]

Hey, that is my old guitar!!! I guess we share a favourite guitar store ;-). Traded it a couple of weeks back.

Congrats. Great, very resonant, and the most dashing guitar I ever had. The top is even better IRL than on the photo. It had to compete with a gorgeous CU24 and two McCs that were more in my wheelhouse and I can only play so much guitars at the same time.

Hopefully it will get the airtime it deserves! And I know a little more of its story, bought it from a guy who played in an alter bridge tribute band. I used it in church for some time.

Really?! Wow! That’s great! It’s in good company here and is making friends with the rest of the herd: 594 Hollowbody, DGT, NF3 (the old Core version, not the current SE) and my old SE Soapbar. It’s a wonderful player, almost plays itself… Through a good amp the clean tone of the neck pickup is incredible and totally addictive. And yes, when it needs to rock, it rocks. Fantastic guitar! What did you trade it for?

Cood company!

It was part of a larger trade, but mostly a Bad Cat amp.

Indeed!

 

[Gtrbldr]

Yeah, this is more like it. Was kind of surprised it was not a PS top. The flame is so deep, that the finish kind of sinks in the grain.

Hello gorgeous!!

 

[Oscar]

Almost 20 years between this pair… exact same colour, otherwise totally different.

Congrats! Love The birds in flight!

Seriously my favourite PRS inlay pattern.

lovely axe! Just the sort of thing I’m after but I can’t find many good 2nd hand places to buy PRS here in the UK!

 

[Oscar]

You’ll find one. Just a matter of time.

I hope so, I may have to sell some gear first but luckily I’ve been buying guitars for a few years now!

Belated congrats.
